River low, though heavy rains on the day. Difficult conditions.

A very wet day on the Courtfield beat, banks very slippery and river low. Three barbel to 7lb caught on pellets, plus one chub and an eel.

River very low and clear. Spent the first hour baiting and sighting fish. Only saw one Barbel during all this time from the bridge. Chub were plentiful. Started fishing near side left of the bridge and roved throughout a very wet day. Was hoping levels and colour would change but despite trying many tactics (leger, feeder, float, freelining) and a whole range of baits could only manage Chub. Was a tough day but no doubt the rain may improve things. All chub were between 2.5-3.5lb. Access to the water is great and its very picturesque. Thx USK.

No sign of the Barbel today. Caught the five Chub to 3lbs by midday, but then went home due to very very heavy rain, which made the very steep banks absolutely treacherous.

It was a very wet day after weeks of no rain. Packed up early as the banks became dangerous despite using ropes and spikes.

First session of a 4 day trip to the Wye. We'd never fished White House before so took time to walk the whole beat before deciding to fish in the left field. I fished the first Croy and my mate fished further downstream. With 2 diesel extraction pumps going for most of the day it was pretty noisy coupled with rain from a drizzle to full pelt was not the best of days. Despite trying pellets, luncheon meat, and bread only action of the day was from a sub 2lb Barbel.
